El-Rufai warns ECOWAS against military intervention in Niger
The immediate past governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai, has urged the Economic Community of West African States against military intervention in Niger Republic.
This follows a Thursday pledge by the body’s defence chiefs to participate in a standby force that would restore democracy in Niger after generals toppled and detained President Mohamed Bazoum.

Speaking via a tweet on X, formerly known as Twitter, the former governor said, “As ECOWAS beats the drums of war, I recall the 1970s rock classic by Dire Straits – ‘Brothers in Arms’, because a war within our subregion is a war between brothers. Indeed, the people of Niger Republic are one and the same with those living in Northern Nigeria.
“Let us bend therefore over backwards to avoid this civil war between brothers.”
